The Defect In Sleep
Who has invented day?
Does the same entity invented night?
If so, then, the same must have invented sleep
That covers us like a cloak and becomes a means
To hungry to avoid hunger or provides drink to thirsty
Peace to those who are disturbed
Rest to those who are tired
Healing to wounded
And makes an equal a beggar to a king
A proud to humble, all wonderful men to an ordinary
But it has one defect and that is it has similarities to death
Since there is little difference between a dead
And a man who is asleep
Is that defect created on purpose?
If so, then, who is its creator?
Is it that entity that never touches sleep or death?
